Zhara (Japanese: ヴァスハラ Vasuhara) is a Nohrian bandit, and the capturable boss of paralogue 21 of Fire Emblem Fates. A former renowned swordsman who has turned to thievery, Zhara is part of a band of bandits making their second attack on a walled city between the Nohrian castle and capital, only to get repelled by Soleil and her loyal mercenaries with help from Corrin and his/her army.

Due to lack of characterization on Zhara's part, and despite his status as the chapter's boss, it is unknown if Zhara is actually the leader of the bandits, nor is it known if Zhara took part in the first attack on the walled city that needed only Soleil's band to successfully repel.

As a capturable boss, Zhara can be captured by Niles or Orochi and placed into the My Castle's prison if one is present, then recruited into the player's army as a bonus unit from there.

Starting stats and growth rates

This section has been marked as a stub. Please help improve the page by adding information.

As Zhara appears in an environment where his level, stats, and weapon levels scale according to the player's progress, the presented stats may vary from shown here. The figure to the left of a + or ~ (or not listed with anything, if that stat is known to not scale in that environment) correspond to a chapter 13 Conquest playthrough, the earliest possible point where he can be encountered in that route (he cannot be encountered in Revelation until having reached at least chapter 18).

Normal difficulty: The stats with two values separated by a ~ denote a range; the figure to the right of the ~ corresponds to a chapter 27 playthrough, the latest possible point a save file may be positioned at.

Hard/Lunatic: Stats with a + may be higher the further along one of the main story paths the player is.

Trivia

As the paralogue chapter in question is first accessed in conditions where most child paralogues not playable in all three campaigns scale their encounterable units, bosses included, two levels and similar scaling conditions appear to be applied to the chapter in question, it is possible that Zhara's level is internally stored as 10, then scaled up to at least level 12 by the time of his initial possible appearance.

Zhara is one of two bosses in Fates's paralogues who neither visibly stop their level scaling upon reaching a certain point nor reach their highest possible level cap even at the final possible position of chapter 27 (the other being the Faceless boss of paralogue 11).
